Over the course of the last five years, Racing Rivals has grown into one of the most hardcore racing games in the world. This loyal community has spent countless hours competing in millions of races in “winner take all” fashion – all in the name of Turf Wars and pink slips.
However, all good things must come to an end… After spending time evaluating Rivals and its future – we’ve decided that it’s time to move on. Simply put, the revenue generated from Racing Rivals unfortunately no longer covers the cost of operations. This was not an easy decision to make.
On March 31st, 2019 – Rivals will be racing off into the sunset, and will be permanently shut down. Current players have until this date to utilize any accumulated virtual currency. We’ll be offering some massive reductions in the cost of crates, installs and repairs in addition to a reduction on timers as you race your way into the history books. Effective immediately, no new in-app purchases will be permitted.
In closing, a resounding and sincere THANK YOU to our extremely driven fans for your loyalty and dedication over the years – we hope you’ve enjoyed playing Racing Rivals as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.
Speed Rating and Lobby Changes
Comments
All my tunes ruined- 500 plus of them!
I have over 1000 cars across 2 accounts.
If this isn't changed back in a week I will be selling my accounts and quitting the game for good!
Glu have fukkkked up and are now covering their backs by saying it was intended! Absolute bullllshit!
I retuned one of my rs500s to 1649 and it was still putting me in the 1656 lobby!! How can we compete??
Made some great friends in this game from all over the world- but I will be leaving if this shittt is not sorted- it's about time glu realised the customer Is king! Not the other way round.
Rryst has stated that they knew it was broken, yet they, still continued to make profit off their product.
Pretty cut and dry..
How the hell do you say you've improved the game to make it more accurate, when I've got two cars, rated differently, with the exact same setup... this is a clear example of how you idiots messed things up.
Do yourselves a favor, fix this crap, and put things back the way they used to be before you lose the rest of the people who are sticking around.. (temporarily!)
I feel even worse for the people that have played for years. All those tunes to waste now.
I've only had time to create new, strong lobby tunes for 3 of my cars.
You should implement this rumored test track FAST and include a way to show what lobby the car will be in before having to pay for the parts. That's the only way you can come close to equalizing the damage you have done Glu.

1. What changes we're made EXACTLY?
2.how do they "improve the game"?
3. What are the lobby ratings now? (Because the systemhas clearly changed)
4.how does this prevent cheaters?
I thought any changed going forward we would be notified about?
How on earth do u charge people for rrc and gems - let gamers build cars and tune only to go and change our investment to a big a pile of shyt.
If I buy Nike I wanna wear Nike - not be told hey here's reebok instead - we giving shitter trainers as we think it will benefit you - no no no - I want my fcking nikeys back
That's how I feel about all my cars - I tried running my cars slower and detuned one or two but what a disappointment.
And now u give a repeat car Chevy - what a bunch of tools you all are.
